This is a rich-text editor that allows for easy creation of web content (often referred to as a What You See is What You Get, or WYSIWYG, editor). The editor functions in a way somewhat similar to Microsoft Word® and therefore many of the icons and features available will seem familiar to most users. In addition to having the ability to alter the look of text on a page, users can also insert links, images, embed videos and more. Furthermore, for the technically savvy, the editor allows the ability to view and edit the HTML for your content directly. Editor at a Glance The following table provides a definition and function for all the icons available in the editor. Administrators can adjust which of these buttons appear in the editor. Instructions on how to do so can be found in the Text Editor Settings section of the Presence Administrator Guide.

Created in 1990 by Tim Berners- Lee, the web quickly became the most used hypertext system in the world, and most browsers default to indicating hyperlinks with an underline. To answer the question of why the underline was chosen over competing demarcation techniques, the thesis applies the methods of history of technology and sociology of technology. Before the invention of the web, the underline–also known as the vinculum–was used in many contexts in writing systems; collecting entities together to form a whole and ascribing additional meaning to the content.

  • Geany Tutorial
    How to use Geany Geany is essentially a text editor. To begin writing your program, you will need to create a new, blank file. Click on New. A new file called untitled will appear. You may start writing. As soon as you do, the option to save the file will be available. If the name of your file is in red, it means that it hasn’t been saved since the last change that is made. Click on the button called Save next to the New button. Save the file in a directory you had previously created before you launched Geany and name it main.cpp. All of the files you will write and submit to will be named specifically main.cpp. Once the .cpp has been specified, Geany will turn on its color coding feature for the C++ template. Next, we will set up our environment and then write a simple program that will print something to the screen Feel free to supply your own name in this small program Before we do anything with it, we will need to configure some options to make your life easier in this class The vertical line to the right marks the ! boundary of your code.

  • Text Editing in UNIX: an Introduction to Vi and Editing
    Text Editing in UNIX A short introduction to vi, pico, and gedit Copyright 20062009 Stewart Weiss About UNIX editors There are two types of text editors in UNIX: those that run in terminal windows, called text mode editors, and those that are graphical, with menus and mouse pointers. The latter require a windowing system, usually X Windows, to run. If you are remotely logged into UNIX, say through SSH, then you should use a text mode editor. It is possible to use a graphical editor, but it will be much slower to use. I will explain more about that later. 2 CSci 132 Practical UNIX with Perl Text mode editors The three text mode editors of choice in UNIX are vi, emacs, and pico (really nano, to be explained later.) vi is the original editor; it is very fast, easy to use, and available on virtually every UNIX system. The vi commands are the same as those of the sed filter as well as several other common UNIX tools. emacs is a very powerful editor, but it takes more effort to learn how to use it. pico is the easiest editor to learn, and the least powerful. pico was part of the Pine email client; nano is a clone of pico. 3 CSci 132 Practical UNIX with Perl What these slides contain These slides concentrate on vi because it is very fast and always available. Although the set of commands is very cryptic, by learning a small subset of the commands, you can edit text very quickly. What follows is an outline of the basic concepts that define vi.

  • Summary of March 12, 2013 FTC Guide, “Dot Com Disclosures” by Susan D
    Originally published in the American Advertising Federation Phoenix Chapter Newsletter (June 2013) Summary of March 12, 2013 FTC Guide, “Dot Com Disclosures” By Susan D. Brienza, Attorney at Ryley Carlock & Applewhite “Although online commerce (including mobile and social media marketing) is booming, deception can dampen consumer confidence in the online marketplace.” Conclusion of new FTC Guide on Disclosures The Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) has broad powers to regulate and monitor all advertisements for goods and services (with the exception of a few industries such as banking and aviation)— advertisements in any medium whatsoever, including Internet and social media promotions. Under long-standing FTC statutes, regulations and policy, all marketing claims must be true, accurate, not misleading or deceptive, and supported by sound scientific or factual research. Often, in order to “cure” a potentially deceptive claim, a disclaimer or a disclosure is required, e.g., “The following blogs are paid reviews.” Recently, on March 12, 2013, the Federal Trade Commission published a revised version of its 2000 guide known as Dot Com Disclosures, after a two-year process. The new FTC staff guidance, .com Disclosures: How to Make Effective Disclosures in Digital Advertising, “takes into account the expanding use of smartphones with small screens and the rise of social media marketing. It also contains mock ads that illustrate the updated principles.” See the FTC’s press release regarding its Dot Com Disclosures guidance: http://www.ftc.gov/opa/2013/03/dotcom.shtm and the 53-page guide itself at http://ftc.gov/os/2013/03/130312dotcomdisclosures.pdf . I noted with some amusement that the FTC ends this press release and others with: “Like the FTC on Facebook, follow us on Twitter.
